One of the in-house litigator's most important roles is quantifying litigation exposure. Whether evaluated at the enterprise level or on a case-by-case basis, the in-house litigator is under more pressure than ever to assist the corporation to manage/contain overall risk. Nuanced high/low analyses or "it depends" answers from a learned legal pulpit will not make the cut in today''s cost-conscious corporate environment. In-house practitioners need to have effective tools and methodologies to assess litigation risks and develop strategies for containing the cost of litigation, as well as financial exposure to the corporation.
